Thomas Paine
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Thomas Paine came as a English man who didn't have much of anything,
|
|||
|
|
not many friends, not much money, but with the help of others wishing to
|
|||
|
|
keep him alive and give him a chance at a new life. Thomas Paine grew from
|
|||
|
|
a sick, unshaven, almost penniless, dirty man to a clean shaven man who
|
|||
|
|
helped band thousands of Englishmen together to fight for Independence.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Thomas Paine was born in England on January 29, 1737. Paine travelled
|
|||
|
|
to American 1774, He landed, then went to Pennsylvania. When he landed he
|
|||
|
|
started teaching two children with the recommendation of Benjamin Franklin.
|
|||
|
|
After he got a job as a journalist and essayist and helped a Scotsman named
|
|||
|
|
Robert Aitkin start a magazine called the Pennsylvania Magazine. They
|
|||
|
|
talked all night about it. Aitkin taught Paine everything he would need to
|
|||
|
|
know about the job. Atkin gave Paine food, a shaving, clean clothes and
|
|||
|
|
cleaned up his act. Paine, who had been a heavy drinker had stopped
|
|||
|
|
drinking for a while, too.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Battle at Lexington and Concorde soon came about and nobody was
|
|||
|
|
too happy about it. The next day after they heard this news, a huge mob
|
|||
|
|
assembled outside of the state house. Thomas Paine was one of the speakers
|
|||
|
|
trying to calm down all of the eight-thousand people that were in front of
|
|||
|
|
the building.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Paine soon went to a ball to represent the Pennsylvania Magazine in
|
|||
|
|
which he represented. He had a lot of answers to questions people kept
|
|||
|
|
asking him. Paine was finally fired when he argued with Aitkin because he
|
|||
|
|
wanted to put an article in the paper. It was called Reflections on
|
|||
|
|
Titles.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The Second Continental Congress met, and Paine was introduced to
|
|||
|
|
someone he didn't recognize named George Washington. Paine spent two days
|
|||
|
|
in his room trying to write down what he thought of all this. One night
|
|||
|
|
soon after, Paine was drunk with Sam Adams and Michael Clowsky, the
|
|||
|
|
expatriate pole and he mentioned that he thinks they need a new world, or
|
|||
|
|
independence. At first the Pole laughed at him, but Adams liked the idea.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Aitkin still tried to get Paine back because many people liked his
|
|||
|
|
articles and his poems he'd have in the paper. Paine still stood his
|
|||
|
|
ground and said no, Aitkin also didn't want Paine to hold a grudge, but
|
|||
|
|
Paine said he doesn't hold a grudge against anyone but himself.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
One of Paine's friends was Thomas Jefferson. Paine looked forward to
|
|||
|
|
sharing a pot of coffee with him, dinner or just sitting in front of a
|
|||
|
|
fire. Jefferson drew from Paine as much of him as he could and then put
|
|||
|
|
the confused memories and assembled it all with meaning. One time Jefferson
|
|||
|
|
was giving a small dinner and asked Paine to come. At first Paine refused
|
|||
|
|
because he valued his friendship with Jefferson and didn't want to make a
|
|||
|
|
fool out of himself in front of Virginians. Jefferson finally persuaded
|
|||
|
|
Paine to go. Paine was amazed at the dinner. Washington knew of Paine and
|
|||
|
|
quickly shook hands with him. Washington often read the Pennsylvania
|
|||
|
|
Magazine while Paine didn't expect him to of read anything. Paine grew a
|
|||
|
|
friendship with Washington and wasn't surprised when Washington was made
|
|||
|
|
commander in chief of group of Yankees who were like hungry wolves around
|
|||
|
|
Boston.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
After meeting a family called the Rumpels, Paine knew what he had to
|
|||
|
|
do. He wanted to be more clear. Then he started to write Common Sense. He
|
|||
|
|
only had a bed, a bolster, chest, coat-rack, table, two fairly good suits
|
|||
|
|
of clothes, ink and paper. That was all that he needed plus a few pennies
|
|||
|
|
for candles, something for food, and something to drink. Paine started
|
|||
|
|
drinking rum or anything that would help his pen move on the paper.
|
|||
|
|
Without realizing it, he neglected his appearence, sometimes spending
|
|||
|
|
twenty-four hours in his room, shaving less often, holding his small stash
|
|||
|
|
of money, allowing his clothes to wear out and become shabby. Thomas
|
|||
|
|
sometimes sold a poem or two to Aitkin. While he would sell, Aitkin would
|
|||
|
|
ask how his masterpiece would be coming along. Paine said that it wasn't a
|
|||
|
|
masterpiece, it was just some common sense. When he was finished with it,
|
|||
|
|
Aitkin refused to publish it because he didn't want to get caught for
|
|||
|
|
treason. He did, however, recommend someone who 'prints everything. Paine
|
|||
|
|
went to the man whose name was Bobby Bell, also a Scotsman. It was soon
|
|||
|
|
published as a small book. People everywhere were buying it and reading it
|
|||
|
|
to groups of people. Paine said that Bell could keep the profits because
|
|||
|
|
Paine didn't expect to sell any books. To his surprise though, one
|
|||
|
|
hundred-thousand copies were sold in three months. He made up many peoples'
|
|||
|
|
minds during the Revolution for what they were fighting for. He continued
|
|||
|
|
to publish a series of pamphlets called the Crisis which was published from
|
|||
|
|
1776-83.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Paine died on June 8, 1809. He was living in poverty. He wasn't as
|
|||
|
|
famous and well-known as he had been before because of some criticism he
|
|||
|
|
made of George Washington in a letter to him. On his deathbed, many people
|
|||
|
|
tried to make him turn into a Catholic since he had no religion. All their
|
|||
|
|
efforts were lost as soon as he died. He wasn't as famous and well-known as
|
|||
|
|
he had been before because of some criticism he made of George Washington
|
|||
|
|
in a letter to him.
